Re: Done with zillow and trulia

It depends on what zip codes you want to advertise in. My market is pretty rural and I was paying a couple hundred bucks per month. I did get one sale from Zillow right when I started and thought it was worth it, but I think I can generate better leads with PPC for the same money (and try to keep working on my organic SERPs in the meantime)

Re: Done with zillow and trulia

What I found frustrating is that they really make it difficult to stop your ads once you start them. The only payment they accept is a recurring credit card charge and there are no monthly invoices or notifications. They make it hard to find information about stopping an ad and you have to call in during their hours and when I finally got around to calling, my agent claimed she was too busy and, could I call back later. If your ads don't expire at the same time, you have to then call back when the other one expires, or they automatically bill you for another month and the only way around that was to cancel the ad for time you already paid for.

Point being that clearly go out of their way to make inconvientent to stop an ad. For that reason, I will be more careful if I ever advertise on one of their sites again.

Re: Done with zillow and trulia

I have come to find that some of the listings that I have seen on Zillow don't have all of the updated information needed. It has been a while since I have used Zillow and or Trulia due to insufficient information needed in order to present a home to my client.
